cadius in a nutshell

April 2007 | Cadius

what is cadius?

Cadius is a Spanish speaking community of professionals from the fields of interaction design, usability and information architecture.

The aim of Cadius to help its members in simplifiying the design which forms part of new technologies, so that it can be adopted by society in an intuitive way.

Currently, Cadius is the most important reference point about usability, interaction design and information architecture in Spanish language.

Our community is organised around a moderated email discussion list, which is increasingly growing, and entails over 2,000 members from all over the world, mainly from Spain and Latin America. At the same time, we hold monthly seminars (Laboratorios), and Cocktail Hours in several cities within Spain and Latin America. We have a weblog too.

From its origins in November 2001, Cadius has acted as a forum for the exchange of knowledge and experience, actively promoting the training of professionals in usability and interaction design.

We also promote formal knowledge production through Faz, the first Spanish-speaking journal on interaction design. Faz is a broad initiative aimed to cover all aspects of user experience and interaction both from a divulgative and scientific perspectives.

Cadius is open to suggestions, input, queries and feedback of any sort.
